The scale can lie... Ive heard it by many and I always have believed it to be true....
I was busy today and I didn't have time to stop to eat, it was late afternoon when I returned home so I decided to just hop on the scale to see if it had change because of the fact that I had a high sodium meal Thursday.
Well guess what? its the same day but several hours different and I was down another lb.
I do believe you should take your measurements also if your weighing.
This was a positive for me but maybe next time my weight will elevate due to sodium, water retention, etc. so don't be discourage if you didn't get the results you wanted this week and you had followed your program to a tee, the scale can lie.

Absolutely true! Google an article titled, "Why the Scale Lies" and you will see just why it is true!

That is why I commented on the scale subject, as Im becoming familiar with this site, making new buddies, and absorbing all the information they have to assist me in my journey, Ive read also what they post to assist them in their journey, and it hurts me when they state that they didnt lose this week from the scale and their discourage a little. Ive been in nursing over 25 yrs. and we weigh all the time, its a requirement. We have several different scales for different types of patients and not one will read exactly the same anywhere in our building they can be anywhere between 1-5 lbs. different, go figure. And yes we do balance them out to get a correct weight all the time lol so see my buds, don't get discourage that scale can lie.

Very good! I hate weighing at the doctor's office - I do not know why, but I do. Maybe because it is so visible to everyone!
